It is a mixed but generally positive review as it supports our future.
Placements: The highest percentage of students is 90%. The highest package is 2-3 LPA, and the lowest is 1 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Haldiram and Coca-Cola. 70-80% students get an internship through society contacts. Roles offered are Food Nutritionist and Food Technologist.
Infrastructure: Facilities are good but not very good. Classrooms are cleaned and have average infrastructure. There is no hostel here. The canteen is good and hygienic, but the prices are slightly high for students. For sports, college participation is good in inter-college competition.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and well-explanatory except for 2-3. It makes students ready for the industry, but we haven't visited any industry yet, and it ensures to offer that. The semester exams are not that tough if you study well, as teachers also support, and the pass percentage is around 91%.

Good academics here, but it lacks placement.
Placements: I mean, the academics are great in our college, but placement isn't, and very few get placed, that too with low LPA. There is a nice job, Mela or something, for placements, and points on ships you have to do on your own, and sometimes they don't even give you a recommendation letter.
Infrastructure: We don't have a hostel. Infrastructure is okay, but not much space. The college canteen is okay as it changes from semester to semester, and the faculty and infrastructure are okay, but there is not much to explore. You know, sometimes you need not only to be stuck in subjects and studies. You need something to explore, but there aren't many areas, playgrounds, or anything.
Faculty: Teachers are good, and attendance is mandatory. They maintain a good standard and are very knowledgeable, as well as having good behavior. This semester, exams are moderate or hard, not easy. The subject I am in or the course I am in is related to the industry.
Other: The fest was okay, as there isn't much space for a crowd, but still, it's enjoyable.

A bittersome but sweet experience.
Placements: Most of the students prefer master's after B.Sc. so our college doesn't provide campus placement due to the about mentioned reason. You can apply for an internship during your semester break or after your graduation but our college usually doesn't provide any campus placement. We are suggested to use our summer break time to apply for an internship to boost our resume.
Infrastructure: We don't have hostel facilities in our college due to the residential area. But you can find many affordable PGs near our college in the residential areas and societies. Specifically for my course food technology our infrastructure is very good. We have most of the equipments like trya, dryer, hot air ovens, spray dryer, extraction unit, and spectrophotometer. Classrooms are basic, we have a projector in most of the classes. We have Wi-Fi available in almost all the classrooms.
Faculty: Professors of food technology department are helpful, supportive, not too strict, and very inspiring. They help us with our doubts and hold interactive sessions often. The curriculum is practical-based so it is helpful for industrial work. The semester exams are not difficult. The concepts are easy. Professors are there to help you at every point. The passing percentage of my course is 50%.
Other: I chose this course because it is different, something new and interesting. The course is not difficult, it is a very logical subject. I wish we could incorporate more industrial trips during our semester then it will be more fun and interactive. We have our annual fest called Feria which is massive and very enthusiastic fest of our college. The area near our college has nice food places.

I am quite satisfied as I have learned a lot of things during my time here.
Placements: There are no such good companies for placements. Mostly, NGO comes for unpaid volunteering. If good companies come it is difficult to crack their interviews if we aren't fully prepared. We have a placement cell also called Eminence. It tries its best to bring good organisations.
Infrastructure: We don't have any hostels. The infrastructure is also very small. It is like 2 blocks only, but it is sufficient according to the number of students. Being a girls' college, we don't need much space to let you know how to roam around, etc. Because we have such a busy timetable for the whole day.
Faculty: Teachers are very knowledgeable and helpful. The course curriculum is very vast, as it contains various interesting subjects. The course curriculum is relevant. I guess it does make students ready for vast fields such as HR, nutritionist, Journalism, B.El.Ed, etc. Semester exams are not that hard either.
Other: I chose this course because it gives me a lot of career choices. I guess subject choices should be given to students. It organises our cultural fest named Feria, and other small fests also.

It has a good learning experience.
Placements: The placement cell in the Institute of Home Economics is active but limited in terms of opportunities. Only a small percentage of students get placed, mostly in education, NGOs, or internships. Many students prefer higher studies or competitive exams. The college focuses more on skill development than direct job placements.
Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is average. Classrooms are decent, and labs have basic equipment. Wi-Fi is slow and often unreliable. Hostel facilities are manageable, but the quality of the mess food needs improvement. Sports facilities and medical help are limited.
Faculty: Faculty members are knowledgeable and supportive. The teaching methods should be more interactive and easy. The course curriculum is fairly relevant but needs updating for better industry alignment. Exams are moderately tough, and the average pass rate is decent.
Other: I chose this course because of my interest in the field and the practical exposure it provides. The best part is the supportive faculty and hands-on learning. I wish campus events and extracurricular activities were more frequent. The campus crowd is friendly and diverse.

Our college has good teachers.
Placements: The college doesn't provide placements however during college days we went to various field visits which were very informative. Teachers also provided us internship opportunities. In the department of human development and childhood studies, there is a preschool "Aarambh" where students can do internships. Other than this our batchmates also did internship in mobile creches.
Infrastructure: The college provided us with Wi-Fi but many times we face network issues as the Wi-Fi connection is poor and connectivity is good only in certain areas. In-home science hons we have various labs for different subjects including food lab, microbiology lab, botany lab, human development lab, textile lab, physics and chemistry lab, etc. There are a variety of lab instruments and they are in good working conditions. The library also provides a variety of books however seating space is limited. Coming to the canteen food, prices are very affordable. Lastly, there is a basketball court and a sports society.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful and have deep knowledge. The course offers a variety of career options in fields like child development, textile, food and nutrition, communication, extension, and resource management. Semester exam are of moderate level.
Other: I chose this course because it offers a wide variety of career options. It's a growing sector and all the subjects are really interesting. The fest takes place every year where we get to enjoy a lot. The college is situated in hauz khas where there are many places for students to explore and enjoy college life with friends.
